In this post we shall do a Nikon 50mm 1.4 review for beginners. It is a better lens than the older Nikon 50mm 1.8 lens. The price also is higher than the 50 mm 1.8 lens. The build quality is good and so is the image quality. You will get razor sharp images if you use it in stop down mode. The lens handles vignetting and chromatic aberrations in quite a good manner. This Nikon lens is also quite good at distortion control. The lens offers a wider aperture range than the 50 mm 1.8 lens. Nikon has now released a higher end 1.4 G lens which has replaced this older 1.4 D version of this lens. This lens is still available widely and Nikon has no plans to discontinue it in the near future. You need to decide for yourselves whether you need the 1.4 D lens or the newer 1.4 G lens for your needs.

The Tamron 17-50 is Certainly Not a Low Budget Imitation Lens
Wednesday, December 14th, 2011
I upgraded the lens on my camera with a Tamron 17-50 Nikon, simply because I did not have the budget for anything flashier. When I saw how my photos looked in comparison to those taken with a similar Nikkor lens, I was speechless. My shots looked remarkably similar and in a few instances looked even better! Where I had previously resigned myself to having inferior quality photos because I could not afford an expensive lens, I now realized what a bargain I had scored. I thought that maybe I am missing something important because I could not tell the difference between photos taken with the Tamron and those shot with a Nikkor lens, so I spoke to a friend who has been doing photography for a while now. He seemed just as surprised at the quality of my photos, and told me he had never even given the Tamron brand much thought because everyone told him it was a low budget imitation.
Comic and Anime Style Art
Thursday, November 10th, 2011I like looking at nice drawings from time to time. Doesn’t everybody? A good drawing, especially a nice figure drawing, can make you stop in your tracks and take notice no matter what you were doing before. Lately a lot of animation and comics have been coming from Japan in the anime style, so more artists have taken on that style to produce art even in North America. American comic style is still popular, of course, and it’s one of the most popular styles of art out there too. Artists like Russell Solomon do comic style art with an anime and manga influence, or maybe it’s the other way around. Anime style is like an extension of the comic book style, only with some stylistic differences. Things like pointy chins and huge eyes are linked to the style, but it’s up to the artist to bring his own vision to life.

Drawing the Way You See It
Monday, September 19th, 2011Learning how to draw could be quite a tedious task for some. The amounts of different kinds of pencils used for different effects could sometimes be confusing. When drawing or rather sketching a person, you have to take into account the shadows that fall at different angles to their body and sections on their face. When working with shadows a different kind of pencil is used. When working with specific facial expressions, a different pencil to that is used.
However when sketching a building, architects have a whole set of specific pencils and pens they use. How to draw is something some people take very lightly. The scariest part is that one day, this task that seemed so silly to you once upon a time could be the difference between you getting promoted or staying in the position you’re in for life and just remaining stagnant with no real prospect of meaningful upward mobility.
